Excellent

Gilbert & Smallman PLLC Andrew Smallman was a godsend to my family at a time when our options were slim and our grief consumed us. A previous attorney wasted valuable time we didn’t have and quoted a fee, at the time I didn’t know any better, but it was astronomical. Last insult was that the estate ...was in Florida and I live in New Orleans. I started calling other attorneys in Florida hoping for a miracle, time was crucial at this point. I spent hours on the phone talking to receptionists answering “intake” questions just for them to tell me no. The last number I had was Andrew, it was in the evening and he personally answered, He was very calm and had an extremely empathetic demeanor. He was flabbergasted over the fees the first attorney requested because his fees were a fraction of that cost. He, as well as his firm had a vast knowledge base, were prompt, professional, and considerate. Going above and beyond is an understatement!! Andrew handled situations that didn’t even pertain to the task at hand, without him this process would have been unbelievably difficult. We can never thank Andrew enough for the executive and attentive care he gave us, I highly recommend Andrew Smallman and his firm to anyone.

Excellent

Andrew one was great with communication if he didn’t answer a call he’d either send a text or an email . He was very on top of things from the moment he started my case he made it seem like I was the only person he was working with knowing he had so many others that just shows what great customer ser...vice looks like not only that , My case was not only a success he walked me through everything that was going on and what was going to happen and made sure I understood what the end Result would be long story short Andrew was amazing I would give him ten stars but it only allows five lol .

Extremely Helpful

Mr. Smallman was very professional and amicable when I called him in regards to my criminal case. He assured me everything would be alright, and he'd take care of it as soon as possible. Needles to say, he did just that, and I'm very grateful to him for that.
